Suit Up

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Express. All opinions are 100% mine.

If you've ever watched "How I met your mother," you would know that the character Barney Stinson always "suits up" for every occasion. He makes it known how important it is to always look your best. And he does do it well.

So why shouldn't we all try this?  Well now you can. Express is giving away $500.00 to the lucky winner to spend for a suit makeover.  You can enter the sweepstakes here Express sweepstakes

Looking over at the express website I saw that there are a lot of great suits for both men and women that can go from day to night. If you happen to work in a more professional atmosphere but still want to wear something that is comfortable, this can work for you. Especially if you want to transition from business day to night time drinks or dinner.  Check out the Express site for some more gorgeous fashion Express

Here are some of the great suits that you can switch it up from the daily grind to cocktails. Simply add a pair of jeans and keep the jacket. Or ditch the jacket and wear a silk tank under it for night time drinks.

I personally feel that all men's suits can be worn for any occasion. Be it work, dinner, weddings, and hey, even funerals. A great suit is a smart investment. All men should have a at least one well fitted suit in their closet. Here are three of my favorites from Express.

Thanks for posting. Of the two women's suits on your blog I prefer the one with the longer suit jacket because sometimes I think short jackets make women look more "school-girl" than CEO.
That is all.

I like long jackets on woman. Short one remind me of a uniform. I must say that when I worked and wore a suit everyone would comment on how nice it looked..I felt empowered! And as far as a man in a suit to me it is all in the tie!

Lipstick messages

Yesterday was my birthday. Nothing fabulous. At this point of my age, it's just another year older. Nothing monumental, not a new decade, nothing to go crazy about.... But it got me thinking about when my sisters and I were younger, (and anyone else who may have lived here from time to time) my mom would write lipstick messages on our bathroom mirror. Most of the times it would say "Happy Birthday" to us. And if I was having a terrible week , it would be something encouraging like "I love you, have a great day." Well, I definitely miss my lipstick messages. I wish when they were written, we had Facebook or Instagram. What a cool thing to have captured. Here is a picture of what one may have looked like, not ours, but similar.

A room fit for a beatiful baby boy....

I wrote this post about a week before I had our son. I never posted it to my blog but wanted to share. It's almost been a month since baby B's arrival. Things are still a bit upside down over here, but boy are we in love !!!   It took a bit but it has all finally come together, I have some more final touches but not too much to go.  This is the most modern room in our home, even with it's vintage touches.  It took me a while to figure exactly which direction I wanted to go with in regards to decorating. Bedding was hard because I literally hated everything. I thought I found something on ETSY but once we found out it was a boy, I wanted something a little more boyish. The one thing that I can say always remained constant regardless of the sex of the baby or style of the room,  was the Jenny Lind crib. It's my favorite. Once I figured out what colorings I wanted for the room, I knew the black was the right choice. So here is the breakdown of some things. As I me

My pregnancy and birth story

  As I mentioned in my last post my pregnancy was very long. 10 months to be exact ! But in all seriousness it was the hardest thing, by far, that I've done. I was never comfortable, I was never over the moon excited because I was scared. Scared straight.   Mr. B & I were very lucky, we only tried for three months before we got pregnant. We knew that we wanted to try in the new year of 2012. I was finished with school and ready for the next chapter in our lives. I was actually over ready. I couldn't wait to be pregnant, be a mom, and see Mr. B be a dad. My pregnancy started out just like everyone elses I assume, calm? I tested five days before I was due to get my period. I remember I had gotten the stomach bug that was going around last year and the Monday I tested, I was still off from work because of it. I texted my sister asking if she thought it was too early to test, she said no... so off I went to test. It came up with a faint line of a yes and I immediately t
